3. Repeat step 2 to remove the other
bearing. Good support used on
the inner races will prevent bear-
ing damage.
4C Inspection of Components
Thoroughly clean all parts. All com-
ponents should be examined for wear
and corrosion. Replace any parts
showing visible wear.
Check to be certain that a press fit
still exists between the shaft and the
bearings. New bearings, or at least
cleaned and re-greased bearings, are
recommended.
Check the shaft for galling, pitting,
and corrosion. Surface corrosion on
the pump portion of the shaft must be
removed so the seals will slide freely
during assembly. The shaft diameter
should be no smaller than .002” be-
low the nominal fractional seal sizes.
Remove any nicks or burrs which
may have occurred during disassem-
bly. Re-clean parts as necessary.
4D Reassembly
All parts should be visually inspected
and cleaned or replaced as outlined
in 4C above. It is recommended that
the bearings be replaced any time
the bearing pedestal is disassembled
for service.
1. Using an arbor press, install the
bearings on the shaft prior to in-
stalling the shaft into the pedestal.
A steel “donut” with the proper
inside diameter and outside diam-
eter, refer to Chart 1, should be
used between the arbor face plate
and the lower bearing to insure
proper installation, and to prevent
bearing damage. The bearings
must seat against the shoulder for
1. Remove the flinger (#21) located
on the pump end of the bearing
pedestal (#3).
2. Using a snap ring plier, remove
snap ring (#4).
3. Open the jaws of the vice approxi-
mately 2-1/4” for model P3 and 3”
for model P15.
4. Place the pedestal, pump side
down, on the jaws. Refer to Figure
4-19.
5. Using a plastic or wooden mallet,
gently tap on the end of the shaft
until it slides out of the frame.
Both bearings should come out
with the shaft. Do not use a metal
hammer, severe damage to the
shaft will occur.
6. Using the arbor press, remove the
two (2) bearings from the shaft.
Refer to Figure 4-21. If the inner
race is well supported during this
operation, no damage will be done
to the bearings.

If an arbor press is not available, a
bench vise may be substituted using
the following procedure.
1. Remove the pedestal and close
the jaws to approximately 1-1/8”
for model P3 and 1-3/8” for model
P15.
2. Place the shaft with either bearing
resting on top of the jaws and gen-
tly tap on the end of the shaft until
the bearing is removed. Refer to
Figure 4-22.
